Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Your questions about wood floor repair in Palmer's Green

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Do you cover the whole of Kent?

The whole UK, including all of Kent. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

What wood floor repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Palmer's Green. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole floor, we can price the job without visiting.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Dents, chips and gouges are filled.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. The colour and grain are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is finished to match the floor’s sheen.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can
